SQL SERVER – FIX Error 3169 – The database was backed up on a server running version
At this rate, I think I am going to exhaust the whole error set available in SQL Server. I am glad that I am able to get into unique situations and then resolve them too. And this is more of a diary of the error messages I am getting into. I was playing with my Demo database on SQL Server 2016. Once done, I started restoring from the previous copy. But is failing with below error 3169:
SQL SERVER – SSMA Error : System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater
I said I have no clue as to why this is happening and I asked if it was in any way related to SQL Server? Let us fix SSMA Error.
